Hi Kawal Like you I voted to remain, in part because of my concern for the economy. While the campaign was going on a friend of mine said that if we leave we’d be throwing the baby out with the bath water to which I wholeheartedly agree. I hope the leave vote was worth it and that we do better

Re: Apple Watch with voiceover, use cases and explanatory material

Hi, I have the original watch, sport model. Hope to get the 3rd gen for Christmas. I’ve been very happy with my watch; I wanted it mainly for the time and notifications. My podcast app gives me notifications so I can keep track of them. As I don’t carry my phone around the house it’s great for

Re: To Me, Braille is Beautiful in iOS 11.x

I so agree with you; I love reading Kindle books in braille for instance. When I first got a braille display about 2 years ago I was over the moon. I still use speech though when my hands are doing other things; just love the choice. All the best Angie > On 9 Dec 2017, at 05:47, M. Taylor

Hi My husband and I have the 6s; he says he has noticed the slowdown, I haven’t. Mine is constantly used and the battery rarely goes flat; his is much less used and is often allowed to run down; I think mine is better looked after in that regard. I would certainly prefer some slowing than

Does indeed sound like a very interesting device but a bit scary re the Win 11 thing. Other than a couple of macs, we only have Win 11 so if we bought the Activator things could get interesting. . If money were no object it would be interesting as an experiment though since we do have a braille

I may be a bit over cautious but the Activator connects to the iPhone by lightning and newer iPhones will be USB c, so my question would be, if I were to buy one: will we be able to connect it using USB C? It may be possible to get an adaptor, but for that much money I’d really want to be sure.
